2nd Round Villain

145 – Iljin of the good academy – 3

Shine Stella rummaging through the memories of the previous day. The woman’s blonde hair sparkled like stars, and Stella retraced the past.

Strange encounters, strange skies, and mighty powers. It was those three that came to mind. A white mask came to mind belatedly.

Since becoming aware of her unusually vast power, Stella has never been pushed back in a fight with anyone. No, it only happened once, but it was completely natural.

Iron-blooded teacher Beatrice. A female swordsman who easily overpowers the imperial knight commander, and is often referred to as a “sword master.”

She was one of the greatest warriors among all swordsmen on the continent. It was not an opponent that he could overcome, having only been in martial arts for a few years.

But, nonetheless.

that day. When he first entered the academy and crossed swords with Beatrice. Stella did not think that she would be pushed by the size of her aura. There was only a difference in swordsmanship and skill.

Perhaps if we fought now, the aspect would be greatly different. Even if it was still too much to guarantee victory, at least I was confident that I would manage to win at least 100 seconds. In a few more years, we may be able to overcome that great mountain. It was confidence, not arrogance.

Miss Beatrice is strong. 1st and 2nd year, to the extent that he taught Stella a lot during those two years. Even though other teachers shook their heads and gave up after teaching for a few weeks.

Can you overcome such a teacher? I was going to snort if someone overheard.

But, why?

brief confrontation. A fiery showdown. Fists flying towards each other.

In that fleeting moment, Stella clearly felt it.

That a mountain greater than the mountain of ‘Mr. Beatrice’ lies in front of him.

It was a judgment that was not easily understood by common sense. Beatrice is one of the strongest. There are no ten people who can exchange numbers with her. That’s why the odds of the suddenly appearing villain being stronger than her are extremely slim.

What’s even more surprising is that the villain’s strength surpassed Stella’s ‘energy’. Stella couldn’t believe it even more.

As they dug deep into the cramped ground together, Stella grabbed Villain with her left hand to make sure he couldn’t get out. Then, he fired a series of hits with his right hand.

Villain, on the other hand, raised his guard with his left arm, and punched equally with his right hand. As a result, Stella had to face his fist. I hit his arm.

However, Stella was confident.

She is a woman who does not yield to anyone with the amount of energy. Stella had already blindly believed in the truth through several experiences.

face and arms. It was an unfair exchange. However, Stella’s face, strengthened by energy, was harder than steel.

can win. I thought so.

“Ugh!”

The throbbing feeling on her face made Stella wince a little. Her dazzling face was covered with white bandages and plasters.

Stella’s hand went up naturally. As his groping fingers brushed against his skin, the flesh was extremely sore.

“Ouch… .”

I couldn’t get the thought of being pushed out of my head.

The villain’s aura was as huge as the Great Sea. A black and ominous aura seemed to cover the world. Stella perilously persevered like a lantern before the wind.

The villain’s body may not be normal, but it was the first time he had been hurt to this extent. Stella trembled as she leaned against the bed in the health room.

Wooddeuk-.

“… !”

Turning over, the ribs that were attacked by the villain screamed. Stella gritted her teeth at the surging pain.

A monster wearing a white mask. Its strength surpassed its own, and its behavior was very peculiar. To the extent that he put a band-aid on himself during the fight. Of course, I took off the bandage a long time ago, not knowing what impurities might be on it.

A button fell off the inside of the coat that the villain was wearing. And that button was the Eden Academy uniform button.

Stella gulped down her saliva. I couldn’t erase the ominous feeling. I couldn’t understand how the hell the school uniform button fell off him.

Could it be that the monster was disguised as an academy student? If so, that was a big deal.

Kki-Ik-.

The door to the health room opened and a female student entered. The identity of the student who entered with her hair as white as snow white was a daughter of the Holy Church.

“Oh, how are you? I have been called.”

Saint Maria entered the nursery room carefully. When a white girl entered the white space, it was like a painting.

The only golden color in the pure white landscape opened its mouth.

“A noble person walked for a lowly person like me.”

“no! and… no, please let go I am your junior.”

“How can I tell the saintess?”

“Maria. that’s my name I don’t like being treated differently than other students, even by senior Cheon-woong, whom I respect, just because I’m a saint… .”

Maria’s voice contained determination. Stella obediently complied.

“i get it. Then ask for treatment.”

“Yes, yes… . Please stay still.”

Maria was called in to treat Stella’s injuries. Unless it’s a really serious injury, the saintess doesn’t move for the sake of normal students. But Stella was no ordinary student.

Sitting on the bed, Maria approached behind Stella, who raised her upper body. Maria put her hand on Stella’s back and closed her eyes to concentrate.

“Holy Mother. Please give Mother’s blessings to the noble warrior who was scarred while fighting the Saihan group. Let new flesh sprout from torn and broken flesh… .”

Eventually, as Maria uttered a prayer, a white halo of light rose from her hand. Aura wrapped around Stella’s body.

The torn wounds began to heal neatly. It was a neat healing, as if he had never been hurt in the first place. Stella let out an exclamation.

“indeed… That’s great. This is the power of the saintess… .”

“Ahahahaha, what a humble talent. But how did you get hurt, senior?”

Pulling out the holy power and slowly pouring it out, Maria asked.

“Didn’t you hear when I came?”

“I only heard that you had a fight with some weirdo. That you were hurt in the process.”

“right. He was a formidable person.”

“Still, since senpai was injured this much, he must have been caught, right?”

Stella, who had been responding quietly, shook her head.

“No, I didn’t catch it.”

“yes yes?”

“I managed to catch it with my hands, but… Ultimately, the arrest failed. He was strong.”

At that plain confession, Maria couldn’t contain her astonishment. Who is Shine Stella? She is a girl who is considered to be the best in the next continent because of her extremely developed prominence from a young age. Didn’t he even earn the title of ‘Cheonwoong’ from last year?

Even though she confronted her directly, she failed to arrest?

That was a matter directly linked to a dangerous future.

“A very dangerous person has appeared… I have to hurry up and catch it, but considering that even the seniors failed, it won’t be easy.”

“You have to be careful. He was a strange one.”

“Um… We must pray that he be caught soon, pay the right price, and repent.”

Ugh-.

Mysterious divine power healed the cracked skin. Savoring that pleasant sensation, Stella and Maria conversed on the same subject.

*****

After being beaten behind a building by me, Frey disappeared. Anyway, since I caught the rope once, I can always find the material, so I don’t have to worry.

Putting that side aside for now, I tried to look around the club with Maria during lunchtime. In the meantime, it’s even better if you can find the head of the reading club.

However, Maria only ate lunch and was called to the health room. It was because I heard that I had to heal Chun-woong, who was injured because of me, with divine power.

Damn, if I had known this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have touched Cheonung. When I was spending time alone thinking about the four crew members, Maria opened the classroom door and came in.

“Maria! Is your treatment over?”

Maria came over and sat down on the chair next to me. It was possible because Frey wasn’t there.

“yes… I’m done.”

“How are you feeling? You used divine power. Aren’t you tired?”

“are you okay. This is enough.”

As if it wasn’t a lie, Maria’s complexion was calm. She is also a saint. Unlike normal priests, they do not get tired easily even when they use divine power.

“however… Mr. Evans.”

“Yes?”

“Have you ever heard of the man wearing a white mask?”

uh? A monster wearing a white mask? Why are you asking such a thing all of a sudden?

“A monster? no?”

For once, I took off the pretense. Maria opened her mouth like a bright child.

“Well, I heard from senior Cheonwoong, but he said that a strange man appeared. But the monster is incredibly powerful.”

“That, is it?”

“They say you can’t figure out who you really are, but I’m so worried. Isn’t that thief abducting little people again? I wonder if the abducted person is okay.”

“Yeah, that’s right. As expected, Maria is very deep inside.”

“It’s scary… What if the assailant surprises a good person like Evans? When that day comes, I have to protect it… Of course, even if it’s not Evans-sama, if someone is attacked, of course you have to protect it.”

“… .”

“I hope the assailant gets caught soon… . Does Evans think so too?”

“Yes. I also want that monster, the assailant to be arrested… .”

Wait, wait. Something seems to be going wrong with this.
